Hello everybody, new to the forum and thought I would introduce myself by showing you the pride of my shop, the work bench. Not sure of the exact age, but from the research I have done, the maker, Chester Hurd of Warsaw New York died in 1866 at the age of 77, so I am guessing it is from the early 1800's. Mr. Hurd was a master carpenter who built several churches in Warsaw NY in the early 1800's so this is a pretty cool piece of history. Not sure what the original use was, but, it is 8' long with a huge drawer that spans the whole 8' and rides on heavy cast iron rollers.
